Customer-centric businesses put customers at the core of the business, then make policy and process design decisions centered on the needs of those customers. That customer focus compels naysayers to label customer centricity as an ill-advised business strategy.
What happens, those naysayers ask, when your heart pushes you to take action that interferes with a long and prosperous future?
For example, let’s say you need to raise fees, but your customers disagree. Or you have policies in place to secure and protect your institution’s assets, but those policies feel unfriendly to your customers. How can making a decision that is best for customers also be a smart strategy for your business?

The final discipline of growth banking is all about listening and acting on feedback from your customers. This discipline requires an understanding of measure and metrics. It requires a commitment to closed-loop feedback. And it starts with the decision to either build or buy a Voice of the Customer solution for your own organization.
But it's important to note: having customer data and following up with individual customer and employee feedback is not enough to move your overall Net Promoter or Customer Loyalty scores.
Yes, you will be improving the experience for customers who share their insights and experiences with you.
But moving the overall scores will take a keen eye and a lot of analysis of customer insights. You'll need to pinpoint the one thing to do next to improve your business. Whether it's adapting a solution, adding a feature, or emphasizing a capability, it takes systemic changes to impact the experience of customer segments (or for all of your customers).

f you want to grow your bank by acting on individual customer feedback, your success depends upon a fundamental principle—you have to engage and encourage customers to provide feedback. In this regard, we advise our clients to follow the five tenets listed below. Take note of each, because they'll help you maximize the quality and quantity of the feedback you collect.
Keep your survey short.
The optimum length for a post-transaction survey is two or three minutes. You should be able to get all you need from your customers in that length of time. (Any longer, and we’d argue you're trying to do too much with one feedback channel.)

It has become all too common for B2B SaaS companies to survey their customers once a year through a moment-in-time customer relationship survey, with at least one section addressing the ultimate question of Net Promoter Score (NPS).
Assuming the results are positive, the company then proudly presents their board with the survey results compared to industry benchmarks and proceeds with the board meeting. “Let’s move on to how many new customers you acquired” is likely the next agenda item.

Your customer experience management (CEM) system is up and running. You are actively listening to your customers and have an impressive 20% survey response rate. You’re measuring NPS and CSAT, and real-time alerts are coming in. That’s great! All signs point to a successful Voice of Customer (VoC) program.
But wait!
Do your customers know that you’re actually listening to them?
Most CX programs today gather customer feedback data and use it to inform company decisions; but not many are coming back to their customers to let them know that their voice was heard. Every survey response is a chance to either improve on a not-so-great experience, or to reinforce and continue building upon an already stellar experience.
Your survey-taking customers are likely out there in the world wondering what ever happened to the feedback they sent you.

Increased income aside, there are other reasons why getting feedback from customers makes sense:
Insightful feedback can help guide product and service development so you focus your resources on what your customers consider important.
Getting customer feedback also helps you identify and eliminate problems. People who complain about your products and services aren’t an annoyance; they’re actually helping you do a better job.

One of today biggest challenge's in business is effectively deepening connection with and identifying better ways to serve customers while also anticipating their needs. Missing such a mark can often mean losing market share that can be next to impossible to regain. However, getting the equation right can be transformative to a brand. Indeed noted management consulting firm McKinsey & Company noted in a recent insight piece that brands that can improve the customer journey see revenues increase as much as 10-to-15 percent while also lowering the cost to serve 15-to-20 percent. How? New trends leveraging technology are making such achievements possible. In fact, McKinsey says "customer care is actually on the cusp of a technology explosion that will greatly enhance frontline capabilities."
